Henry David Thoreau's "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" remains a cornerstone of political thought, exploring the individual's relationship to government and the moral imperative to resist unjust laws. This powerful essay argues for prioritizing one's conscience over the dictates of the state, advocating for nonviolent resistance as a means of achieving social justice.

Thoreau's treatise on government resistance explores the principles of individualism and the right to dissent. He challenges readers to examine their own complicity in unjust systems and consider the responsibility of active citizenship. A vital contribution to the literature of political science and philosophy, this enduring work continues to inspire those seeking a more just and equitable world. This edition meticulously preserves the original text for contemporary readers interested in the historical roots of civil rights and political ideologies.

This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
